In the middle episodes of Mushi-Shi, Kellen begins to come around on the show, while James' love is reaffirmed. "The Sleeping Mountain," "One-Eyed Fish," "One-Night Bridge," "Inside the Cage," and "Pretense of Spring" all receive favorable grades, but which one is a standout episode of the pack and why?

Kellen and James continue through Mushi-Shi with the second group of episodes ("Those Who Inhale the Dew," "Raindrops and Rainbows," "Where Sea Meets Man," "The Heavy Seed," and "The White Which Lives Within the Ink Stone"), and while the show still does have some problems at its core, there is reason to be hopeful.

Kellen and James said they would never do a show blind after their last debacle, but here they are reviewing the first five episodes of Mushi-Shi. It's a program never seen by Kellen, and only in passing by James. While it's not as bad as Blue Drop, just how much does it fly over the low bar?

Kellen is back from his vacation, and he has some stories to tell. How does a giant comic convention like C2E2 fare if you are primarily an anime fan? How many ways can airlines and hotels almost screw over your vacation? And what kind of zaniness did Kellen get into with the Earth-2.net crew? The answers to all are within, as well as some short reviews of Carl Macek's Robotech Universe and Dragon Age: Dawn of the Seeker.

Kellen and Mike just can't express the emotion contained in the final six episodes of BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad as "Write Music," "Performance Eve Festival," "Festival," "Third Stage," "Slip Out," and "America" receive near-universal praise from the hosts. Kellen is later joined by the voice of Maho, Brina Palencia, for a quick chat about her role in the show.

In the penultimate BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad review episode, Kellen sings along and Mike does some method reviewing as the duo tackles the next set of episodes: "Indies," "Three Days," "Leon Sykes," "Blues," and "Greatful Sound."

Somewhere between talking about sports, wrestling, Canada's Official Languages Act, and an upcoming convention in Chicago, Kellen and Mike review the middle batch of BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad episodes ("Summer Vacation," "Secret Live," "Ciel Bleu," "Dream," and "Back to School").

Kellen and Mike continue their look through BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad with the second group of five episodes. Then Kellen is joined by the voice of Ryusuke, Eric Vale.

It's the 100th episode, and the BECK-travaganza continues as Kellen is joined by Michael David Sims to review the first five episodes of BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad. Kellen sings, Mike recounts his awkward high school years, and a good time is had by all as Animezing Podcast hits the century mark.

After nearly two months of waiting, Animezing Podcast is back! And because you all waited so patiently, we are beginning the BECK-travaganza an episode early. Today, Kellen sits down to discuss the show with co-director Taliesin Jaffe.
